The number of foreigners, especially English, who come to enjoy the fine climate, and to advance, the magnificence of this city; is considerable even in this year. The account given in a French Paper of the arrest of many Carbonari, said to have recently taken place, is false, as well as the statement that the road from Rome to Naples is again un safe; because, thanks to the vigorous exertions of our Govern metit, our territory and the whole .province of Maretimi and Campagna arc quite free from the incuraions•of banditti.

The Portuguzse Ambassador, the Bavarian Minister, anti a number of Gentlemen of distinction, were waiting at the King's Palace, in Pali-Mall, with much anxiety, in consequence of the groundless reports which had been circulated. The Bulletin of Saturday was only signed by Slr Henry Halford, the two other Doctors being in London at the time of issuing the Bulletin, but it will be seen by the Bulletin of yesterday_ they resumed their attendance on the King yesterday morning. Sir Matthew Tierney was sent for to attend the King on Wednesday, from Brighton.

An express was sent off to Coventry for the aid of the military, who arrived with thestrictest promp• titude about two o'clock in the morning. On Tuesday the mob again assembled ;but the prin cipal inhabitants came forward with alacrity, and were sworil in as special constables. Th e Eliot Act was then read, and they dispersed without doing further mischief.--(Leicester Journal of March 17.) A SUoCKING DISCO.% LILY was made last Mon. day night in a field on the Roundlay road, near Leeds, belonging to Mr. Wilson, butcher. After milking the cows in the morning, the door was locked up and a hay knife left in the mistal ; at live o'clock i n t h e even i ng t hi s p l ace was f o und broken o p en , and the hay knife taken out and laid near the stack, close to which were found the first joints of two fingers, apparently cut from the left hand of a remote, with two other pieces of• the same lingers. There is reason to suppose this horrid transaction had been performed with the hay knife, but upon w hom, or miller what cir cumstances, remains.yet to be explanted.—(Don caster Gazette.) There are considered to be more first-rate houses at the west end of the town at this time to be let furnished, than has ever been remembered. TIIE THEATRES. KING'S THEATRE.—II Barbiere 'di Siviglia was once more performed on Saturday night.

COVENT GARDEN THEATRE.-011 Saturday, that truly popular and deserving favourite of the public, Mr. Faweerr, took his annual benefit, and we are happy to say to a very full assembly. After %VEBER'S Overture to Der Freischutz, which the composer kindly led in the orchestra, the Opera of Love in a Village was admirably performed. 13RARAM was in brilliant voice, and gave the music of Hawthorn with the accus tomed energy and spirit. He was rapturously applauded in a song he introduced, called " The burn of Chase," in whi c h p art o f Where's cele brated Hunting Chorus is introduced with great effect. FAWCETT threw a considerable portion of humour into the part' of Hodge. FitaitEN, tts Justice Woodcock, was inimitable; Mrs. DAVEN.• !PORT'S Deborah was perfection. We never saw a part better dressed or played. This last remark also applies to Miss PAToN's RoSetta. In " Heart's a n y own," and 44 Lo here the gentle Lark," she was particularly happy. They were both rapturously applauded. HAYMARKET THEATRE.--TiliS house shortly opens with a Comedy of KENNY'S.

NEWCASTLE.HPONTYPIE, MARCH IB.—Not for these fifty years have there been such active preparations going forward toward gaining the representation of the great and opulent County of Northumberland as at present. Four Candi dates are now in the field, viz. THOMAS WENT• WORTH BEAUMONT, and MATTtr cm; BELL, Esqrs., the present Members ; and Viscount IlowicK, and the lion. HENRY THOMAS LI DDELL. The canvass of the first-mentioned Gentleman (Mr. Beaumont) has every where, so far, been of the most favourable description. Neither in the trammels of the Whigs, nor any other faction, and the straight-forward advocate of liberal principles, in every sense, he assures the free holders his only ambition is to he an 4 ' inde pendent and upright man, unconnected with party, and to ,discharge his duty in Parliament accordingly."--This. frank anti honest mode of declaring himself induces a host of independent minds to rally around hiM, anxious to give their support to a man of such honourable and dish!. terested pretensions. Both at llexham and Mor peth, last week, the people shewed their de votedness to the cause of independence, by unyoking the horses from Mr. Beaumont's car riage, and drawing'him and his friends in triumph to the respective market-places of the two towns, where the Honourable Gentleman addressed the assembled freeholders in a way that drew down the greatest applause. The last accounts left him canvassing in the Northern part of the County, where, it would seem, there is a consi derable party of liberal-minded men equally zealous in their efforts to secure the return to Parliament of a man who aims at the senatorial dignity solely with a view to the public good. Unquestionably such men ought to be the Re. presentatives of the People.— According to the general opinion, the Honourable Mr. Lid. dell, whose cause has been taken up most enthusiastically, by a large portion of the free holders is pretty sure of being one of the two sitting Members for Northumberland. Mr. Bell most assuredly has considerable interest in the county ; but there is such a strong popular cur rent running nt present in favour of the heir of Ravensworth, that Mr. Bell's friends feel not a little perplexed by the circumstance.-- . . With regard to my Lord Ilowick, whom all admit to be a very amiable and pro. miring young man, the absolute decadence of 'he 'Whigs in Northumberland would seem to deny all favourable auguries at present for the admission of that Honourable Gentleman within the walls of St. Stephen's as a Member for Northumberland. Speculate as we may, how. ever, there will no doubt be again a severe con. test at Alnwick. And it is possible enough, as the old adage has it, that " strange things may fall out between the cup and the lip." POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. A respectable-looking young man, calling himself James Bowen, was brought up on the following charge:—Alexander Jones, a clothes.salesman in Ilolywell.street, Strand, stated that the prisoner came into his shop on that (Saturday) evening, and offered to sell him a pair of black silk stockings, quite new, for 4s. fid., observing, that if he purchased them he could bring some more. The witness knowing the stockings to be worth at least 86., questioned the prisoner, and he said he had pur. chased a quantity at (is. a pair. Witness stewed out, under p re . 'once of procurin g c h ange , b ut got an officer and gave the prisoner in charge. The officer found three pairs more of the same kind of stockings in the prisoner's pockets, and about 21. in money. The prisoner, who seemed much agitated while at the bar, upon being asked if he had any thing to say, replied. " I took them from my employer, Mr. Graham, in High liolborn."—lfe was committed till Tuesday. • UNION. HA I.L. A DISTRESSED NAVAL' OrricEit.—On Saturday Thomas Ifowe, one of the oldest Lieutenants in the Navy, and sneer re lative of the late Lord Howe, was brought to this Office, charged with stealing a quantity of crockery-ware, value Ws., the property of Mr. Bacon, from his warehouse a t N ew Cross, near Deptford. John Pegg, warehousem a n t o M r . Bacon, stated, that he was employed on Friday afternoon, packing a crate, which was left at the door for the purpose of being sent to Dover next morning. He was at the toll. gate, New Cross, on Friday night, about eleven o'clock, when some person informed liim that a man was taking the goods out of the crate. He went immediately and found the prisoner on his knees tying up some jugs, mugs, and tea. pots, and he gave him in charge to Whitlow, a watchman; and Wright, the Bow-street patrole. Wright locked him up in New Cross cage, from whence he made a desperate en deavour to escape, as, on going into th e c age in th e morning, the officer found a quantity of brickwork torn away, and the prisoner concealed in the chimney, from whence he was dragged, literally covered with soot. His appearance was deplorable in the extreme, having no shirt on, and his clothes only hanging in shreds together. After the depositions were rend by the clerk, the prisoner handed a written document to the Magistrate, S. J. CALDWELL, Esq. who observed that it had no reference to the case, and he must be committed for trial. On hearing this determination, the prisoner clasped his hands together in agony,while the tears rolled down his cheeks; then sunk, overcome by his feelings, on the scat near the bar. LAMBETH -STREET. Cu anor Ansm—On Saturday, Inn. Leash Smith, cabinet maker in a small way, residing in Old Montague -street Whitcchapel, and who had been in custody for some days past, was placed at the bar, for further examintion, charged with letting fire to his premises, with intent to defraud the Globe In. surance Company. Mr. Freshfield, solicitor, and Mr. Heron, Surveyor to the Company attended for the prosecution, and a person from Mr. Harmer's office for th e d e f ence . The evi dence in support of charge was as follows :—John Dun ate examined. On the night in question, hearing an alarm of fire, I took the parish engine to the prisoner's house ; there were about twenty persons present, and the fire, I thought, originated in a shed in the yard, .but on examination I found that there was one also in the dwelling-house. This was in a cupboard, situated under the stairs ; in it were a parcel of shavings, which were on fire, together with the staircase. This excited my suspicions, and 1 took the prisoner into custody. I was than, and am still, of opinion, that the fire from the shed could not communicate with the house, as there was a large yard between them.—Mr. H R oar here produced the policy, by which it appeared that the prisoner had effected .an insurance for the first time on the 24 t h December last, for 350/. His stock in trade, furnittrre, &c. he said did not amount to 1001.—All the witnesses not being in attendance, the prisoner was remanded for further examination. We have particular pleasure in remarking the symptomsolthough yet but feeble ones of returning activity in the trade of this manufacturing district. Goods have been a little more on demand, but at very low prices, and some business has been done during the past week, at Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield. The wool market of Wakefield has experienced some little change for the better, both in prices and the quantity of business done. —( Wakefield Journal.)

Th Danish vessel,: with a valuable car go o f brandy, Rec. having i, sustained so much damage as to become a complete wreck, was deserted by her crew in the channel, in November last; the master and crew were landed at Dover, and from their infor mation several of our fishing vessels put to sea, in the expect*, tion of fallin g i n w i t h her. .On the 18th, abo ut ID o'clock in the forenoon, the smack Nancy, 'Pottle, master, and the smack Nancy, Dalton, master, discovered her off Deadly Head with two French boats in company, who readily agreed with the crews of the Dover smacks, to unite their exertions to endea. your to get the wreck into port. They took her in tow, and proceeded or the English land, - until about four o'clock in the afternoon, when' eleven large Dieppe fishing boats came up, and with an overpowering force drove away the two English maks, took possession of the wreck, and sun ceeded ill getting it to Boulogne where the case has been heard before the proper tribunal, which hat made a most equi. table decree, viz.—" ()ne third. for Salvage ; to the tw o D over smacks, and the two French bOots, and their crews, in the fol. lowing proportions—two-thirds to the vessels in proportion to their tonnage, and one.third to the crewo."—f Cinque Ports Herald. ) CAPTURE or REVENUE OYFICERS RY The Britannia steam vessel arrived from Boulogne, on Saturday the 12th instant, among the passengers were four Revenue Officers (the mate and three seamen of the Vigilant reven ue cruizer), who appear s h a d b oar d e d a French lugger, laden with tubs of spirits, at seven o'clock on the Friday pre ceding, about seven miles off the South Foreland ; the crew of which, being seven in number, (five British and two Frenchmen) instead of submitting to be captured, de. terminod upon making a capture of the officers, in which they succeeded after a short scuffle; and immediately af. ter hoisted sail, and stood over for Boulogne Bay, where they arrived about day-light on Saturday morn. ing, and a small boat coming along-side, into which the four captives were ordered, and conveyed to the shore and set at liberty. The lugger then steered her course for Calais, to which port she belonged. When the officers first boarded the lugger, there was attached to her a tub-boat, which as a precautionary measure they cut adrift, to prevent the smugglers from making use of her, as the means of escape, and they also cast off their own Galley, in which they had left one of their hands, whilst the four others boarded ; both of which boats were very shortly afterwards picked up by the Cutter.
